What did men eat in the world war 2?

Answer 1

My father wrote in his diary that during the time they expected to be invaded, they survived on 2 slices of bread and margarine for breakfast, nothing often at lunchtime and in the evenings, whatever was left when they finished their duty shift. Potatoes, sometimes a sausage, often a meatless stew. When abroad, they were given ration packs which had to last them many days, dried food to be mixed with water, hard biscuits etc.
